I made further tests with different outstream-formats - it seems that there are
at least 2 occurences of recorded glitches: the one with
buffer-full/missed-video-data producing blocking-failures and another type
- even if there are no errors shown in log -
producing audio/video-latency with flashing image disturbances every a few
seconds.
